Summer of 69 by Bryan Adams
This is my favorite Bryan Adams song. This is a rock song with energetic tunes, energetic steps, friendly lyrics. “Those were the best days of my life” punch line like this makes you feel nostalgic. Adams has sung this song in his typical unorthodox voice which some how suits …
The Soweto Gospel Choir
Having been invited to their live video recording performance, what I expected of the Soweto Gospel Choir is nothing close to what I actually witnessed, and I mean that in the most positive way possible.

M People (music group)

Just to See You Smile by Tim McGraw
